East Monroe closure scheduled to begin Monday in Riverton

(Riverton, Wyo.) – East Monroe Avenue will close to through traffic beginning Monday, June 2, in Riverton for approximately six weeks east of its intersection with South Federal Boulevard.

The closure of East Monroe Avenue to through traffic is required to allow the contractor to rebuild the east half of the South Federal Boulevard/Monroe Avenue intersection on the $5.04 million South Federal/Monroe Avenue highway improvement project.

During the closure, all East Monroe Avenue traffic will be required to gain access to Federal Boulevard via Smith Road, East Park Avenue and Webbwood Road.

WYDOT and the City of Riverton apologize for the inconvenience caused by this closure.
